On Feb. 11, kindergarten students at Chestnut Street School in West Hempstead marked a major milestone as they celebrated 100 days of learning with creativity, laughter, and joy.
To commemorate the occasion, many students and teachers dressed as 100-year-olds, arriving at school equipped with walking canes, glasses, gray hair, suspenders, and sweater vests. The playful costumes brought smiles to classrooms and hallways alike, making the 100th day of school both memorable and meaningful. In addition to dressing the part, students created a variety of posters and decorations centered around the number 100. These colorful displays highlighted counting skills, creativity, and the progress students have made since the start of the school year. The artwork was proudly showcased throughout the hallways, and each kindergarten class took turns check out each other’s work.
The 100th day of school celebration provided an opportunity for students to reflect on how much they have learned and grown academically and socially. It also served as a joyful reminder that learning is an endless adventure.
